NICELY SETTLED.

The labor question was settled over
two thousand yearsago in China, There
are no strikes or lockouts in the land of
Confucius, The bricklaycrs and plaster
ers and carpenters and tinsmiths form
lines ON either side of the public square
and wait until they are wanted, The
master builder comes along and puts u
chalk mark upon those whose services he
desires. They follow him and go to
work. No quarrel about wages, The
least sign of discomfort calls for the head
of the kicker. All are glad to see it fall
into the basket, for it gives II place for
one more to work. Less than three in
one hundred can read and rats tail is a
luxury. How nice it is to have the labor
question settled. d.-Ldbor Echo.

can be severely or permanently in
jured.
This plan of production and dis
trlbution is now to bo proposed to
the parliament or political repre-
sontatiycs of the nation for amend
mcnt and adoption. 1t is evident
that it must before have been print
ed and circulated in each local politi-
cal assembly and in each local trades
union. The political representatives
can, of course, no longer be mere
political tricksters; they will be
elected on accounted their knowledge
and discrminatiyc power. The par
Lament will beware Of changing the
plan proposed 10y the general trades
council unless it be vitality necessary
when that plan is once more referred
back to the general trades council
for amendments. Until the two
bodies be united the plan cannot be
executed, and all productive and dis
tributivc bcsincss must be at "A stand
still. Thus Il compromise of some
sort will soon be agreed to and its
improvement will proceed from year
to year to a greater degree of justice
and wisdom.
The parliament will have little
else to do than improve the general
law and the system of education.
Each local political legislature will
be organized as heretofore and each
representative to be liable to be re-
called instantly by his constituents
if he should fail to represent their
will. But all important laws will be
subject to approval or rejection by a
popular vote. This Is what Social
lists call Democracy, Freedom and
Justice.

That is another of the Devils pet

sion which we are all of us ready to
make, that because things have long
been wrong it is impossible they

most fatal sources of misery and

JOHN SWINTON'S IDEA.
4 National Conference of United and
Labor Party Representatives.

The last issue of John .VWintOHs
Paper contains the following sug-
gestion;
1--WE rejoice to hear that many of the
more temperate leaders of the United
Labor (or George party, here and else
where are dcsirouS Of holdings a National
Conference some time this year with the
Union Larty. That is the right way.
Let every plank of the Labor platform
be submitted to a full, fair, free vote of
the representatives of the various ele-
ments that make up the Labor party.
We feel able to announce that the Union
Labor delegates will not bolt from any
National Labor Conference conducted on
the principles of fair play
Why not be democratic about it
and submit the platform to the mem
bcrs of the various divisions of the
Labor Party? After all that is being
done as naturally rs possible. The
platform of the Labor Party that is
to rescue the workingmen from bond
aye will not be made in a day. 1t is
matter of growth, and the fonnda-
tions are already laid. 1t takes a
long time to make the people ac-
quaintcd with the means of emanGi-
patton, for they don't read.
Still it would be interesting to
know which Of the planks in all the
Labor platforms would receive the
sanction of a majority Of the mem
bers of the Labor parties. 1t would
be more than interesting would
be instructive.

THE FARMER SEES IT.

Labor, lank, lean, lop-eared, colossal
ass, permits himself to be defrauded of
the largest share Of the products of his
toll.
And the fraud is done so neatly and
systematically that, although before his
very eyes, he sees itnot.
Not by force; that would be vulgar
and be called robbery, but under the
gllise and forms Of law termed lcgisla-
ton.
Yes the people make the laws.
Each worker has a vote.
And the majority rules.
But, Illuminating spectacle
The only use workingmen make of
their votes is to sanction and endorse
the spoiaton Of themselves and the
degradation of their helpless wives and
children. Western Farm Jom1tdi

CLUBBER WILLIAMS.
An Enemy of Organized Labor in the
Tolls.

The Police Commissioners of New
York city have collected great
amount of evidence which goes to
show that Police Captain Williams,
the brutal club carrier, has for years
been in league with the gamblers
and prostitute mongers in his pre-
clnct. The inference is that he re-
ceived "blood money from the

American millionaire, Mr.. Andrew
Carnegie, intends taking up his
abode in his country, and, if neces-
sary, using his entire fortune for the
PRONUNCIATION of republicansm. If
this be true, Mr.. Carnegie may as
well stay where he is. The English

REVENGE ON MCGlYNN.
Destroying His Works of Charity
Among the Poor.

New YORK, July 0,--The parish
toner's of st. Stephens Church, New
York, who have remained faithful
to the cause of DR.. McGlynn, their
communicated pastor, were in Il
state of ferment yesterday, caused by
the statement that st. Stephens
home, built by Rev. DR.. McGlynn
for the care of orphan children sew
eral years ago, ANA on which he Law
lshed so much money and energy,
was about to be abolished.
The authorities of the church
seem to be determined that DR..
McGlynn shall not have the satisfac-
ton Of witnessing the beneticent re-
suits of his years of charitable labor
among the poor.
For several weeks past the process
of depopulating the home has been
steadily going on, but 50 quietly that
no one but the parties interested
were aware of the fact Many of the
inmates have been transferred to
other institutions; several have been
sent to their homes, and out of the
entire number of zoo children but
sixty are now at the home in Twenty
eighth street. Many of the children
have no relatives whatever, and the
widowed mothers of some of the boys
have no means to properly support
them.
knowing DIR. McGlynn's opposi-
ton to parochial schools, 1t is intend
ed to turn the building in Twenty
eighth street into such an institution.
The parishioncrs are generally OPP
posed to such step, and the school
if opened will be boycotted.

CHRISTIANITY, POSlTlVlSM
AND SOCIALISM,"

Correspondence London Comnourcdl
In the earliest records of Chris
tianity the notion of 'holiness"
(which is the keynote of manyother
rohgions) is subordinate to that of
Glove" that is, the impulse to do
right ont Of mere regard for others
which "savcs" men from the anti
social vices. This is the principle
in Paul's "All things are yours"
Johns "Perfect love casteth out
fear and James's "Perfect law of
liberty" down to the arch individu-
alist Luther's
over liebt nicht Webb, Vein und Gesang
Bleibt Gin Narr sein Lebenlang;
who loves not wine, woman and song,
Abides fool his whole life long.
and to this principle the gigant lc
blundcr of asceticism is totally OPP
posed.
Positivism is primarily philos-
optical generalization of the sciences;
but whether owing to the personal
vanity of Comte, or the genuine ne,
cessity for a religious side to the
syste m, an attempt to elevate it into
religion was made. Comte him
self, believe, philosophically for
getful that the feminine nature itself
is exceptionally religious, proposed
the worship of woman, q notion too
childish and exaggerated even for
modern tendencies of thought. At
all events it was. | think, not as a
logical necessity but as an empirical
exnedient that the current and super
fetal sides of Christianity were ab-
sorbed into Positivism. The umi-
tatio Christi" of course went with
them; but anything. further than
that book from the spirit of the
early Christian writings car hardly
be imagined; as for example, "True
quletness of heart is gotten by resist
ing our passions, not by obeying
them."
Socialism among all the great sys-
TENS of the world, is not alone in
aiming at social happiness, but in
making 1t economically possible; in
removing the obstacles to the full
filment of the religious aspirations.
1t may indeed be necessary and right
to accentuate the new half-truth of
perfect man HrOugh the perfect society;
but if the old half-truth of the per-
fect society Aroagh Heperted mum be
wholly lost sight of, it will have to
be re-asserted some day with un-
necessary emphasis.
